	'''Tracking'''		'''Tracking'''

	The ~~Head~~ [[tracking]] in the Rift has no visible [[latency]]. The [[Tracking#Systems\|tracking system]] employed by Oculus Rift is called [[Constellation]]. It is an improved version from [[DK2]] and [[Crescent Bay]]. While [[rotational tracking]] is achieved with [[inertial measuring unit\|inertial measuring units]] (IMUs), [[positional tracking]] is accomplished with an [[Oculus Sensor]] ([[outside-in tracking]]). Tiny LED markers are placed on the HMD, and the camera sensor is able to recognize these markers to track the position of the HMD. The markers on the back straps of the HMD allows the back of the user’s head to be tracked. This potentially allows for 360 degrees of tracking. The Rift's tracking is designed for both [[Seated VR\|seated]] and [[standing VR]] experiences.		The head [[tracking]] in the Rift has no visible [[latency]].

	The Rift HMD has a sleek all-black design, with improved ergonomics when compared to the [[DK2]]. Soft plastic and fabric are used throughout. Smooth rubber and ~~course~~ cloth cover the front and sides of the headset. A single cable tethers the HMD to your PC while a mesh of lycra envelopes the [[lenses]] of the headset. The [[interpupillary distance]] (IPD) can be adjusted physically through the dial on the bottom of the HMD. The user’s face makes contact with the HMD through a comfortable foam faceplate. These "face interfaces" are removable and interchangeable. Oculus has mentioned that they are creating multiple facial interfaces with different interior faceplates to accommodate various facial features and users with glasses. With the default face interface, Oculus recommends a frame width of 142mm or less and a frame height of 50mm or less, if the user has to wear glasses.
